Anyway ZZ Top spelled it out in that song about the girl that's really good at sticking little bricks together.

It's Lego because it is an uncountable noun. Like air, water or undergrowth.

i just found this. its from some dudes site that makes lego sculptures...not sure if its technically correct...
Which is correct as the plural of LEGO: 'Lego' or 'Legos'? Neither, actually. The word 'LEGO', when used as a noun, should only refer to the company that makes the product. Otherwise 'LEGO' is supposed to be used as an adjective. Thus, when referring to the pieces, neither 'lego' nor 'legos' is correct... rather one should say: 'LEGO bricks' or 'LEGO pieces' or whatever (using LEGO as an adjective -- and one should really capitalize all of the letters, and put the little 'circle-R' symbol after it (®)). This is all a matter of protecting the trademark of 'LEGO' for the company (using it otherwise degenerates the strength of the trademark). This is not to say that I use the word correctly 100% of the time... but that's the answer to the question (it's always fun/painful to read the near-flame-wars that start at slashdot.org over this topic... and generally, both sides are wrong).

Who cares...words like innit (isnt it) and shup (shut up) arent found in the dictionary but are still used to communicate.

SO SHUP BOUT UR LEGO MAN OR IF UR FOREIGN THEN LEGGOS INNIT

I had the pirate boat but lost the instructions and was scared to break it just incase..
